Ok, so finally got the latest update out! I will highlight the changes below but you can view the Dev Log I posted on YouTube

We have decided to make the Steam tournaments and Viveport tournaments separate, just because the time difference it takes to get a new build approved on VivePort. We don't want two different versions of the game running at the same time. So each platform will have their own prizes.

So it's time to announce the prize details for the March Steam Tournament! The top 7 people will receive a prize... This is the most prizes given out in one month so far! ;)

1st place Forest Island: $25 Amazon Gift Card.
2nd place Forest Island: $15 Amazon Gift Card.
3rd place Forest Island: $5 Amazon Gift Card.
4th place Forest Island: $5 Amazon Gift Card.
5th place Forest Island: $5 Amazon Gift Card.
6th place Forest Island: 2 Free Steam Copies of Glider Island.
7th place Forest Island: 1 Free Steam Copy of Glider Island.

Changes in 1.9:

Earn 15 bonus points for flying next to an eagle! There are 3 eagles per map and they are randomly generated and their way-points are random.
Added in a sync loading screens to see progress on slower computers.
Change in camera position is now saved so you don't have to keep resetting your favorite position.
More updates to the flight physics. You can now fly faster. Also the wings will return back to normal bank when input is neutral so you will not remain crooked.
Steam Leaderboard updated to include only Steam scores.
